Abstract
Description
- The present invention relates to a synergistic pesticidal composition comprising a combination of pesticides and to a method of controlling pests with said composition. The invention further relates to a process for the preparation of the novel composition, to the use thereof and to plant propagation material treated therewith, and to the use of a compound of formula (A) below for the preparation of said novel composition.
- Certain mixtures of pesticides have been proposed in the literature for pest control. However, the biological properties of these known mixtures are unable to satisfy the requirements made of them in the field of pest control in all respects, so that there is still a need to provide further mixtures having synergistic properties for pest control, in particular for controlling insects and representatives of the order Acarina. This need is met by the provision of the composition of this invention.
- Accordingly, the invention relates to a pesticidal composition comprising a quantitatively variable and synergistically acting combination of the pesticidally active compound of formula

and at least one adjuvant - The compound 1-(2,5-dichloro-4-[1,1,2,3,3,3-hexafluoroprop-1-oxy]phenyl)-3-(2,6-difluorobenzoyl)urea (lufenuron) of formula (A) is described in, inter alia, The Pesticide Manual, 10thEd. (1994), The British Crop Protection Council, London, page 628.
- The agrochemically acceptable salts of the compound of formula(A) are typically acid addition salts of inorganic and organic acids, preferably of hydrochloric acid, hydrobromic acid, sulfuric acid, nitric acid, perchloric acid, phosphoric acid, formic acid, acetic acid, trifluoroacetic acid, oxalic acid, malonic acid, toluenesulfonic acid or benzoic acid.
- Preferred compositions within the scope of this invention are those that contain the compound of formula (A) in the free form as active ingredient.
- A composition comprising a combination of the compound of formula (A) and, only one further pesticidally active compound (B) is also preferred.
- A particularly preferred composition is that comprising a combination of the compound of formula (A) together with either
a) diafenthiuron, or b) furathiocarb, or c) fenoxycarb, or d) pirimicarb, or e) triazamate, or f) imidacloprid, or g) azamethiphos, or h) monocrotophos, or i) methidathion, or k) cyromazin, or 1) profenofos, or m) cyhalothrin, or n) cypermethrin, or o) aldicarb, or p) deltamethrin, or q) endosulfan, or r) chlorpyrifos, or s) methomyl, or t) terbufos or u) carbofuran, or v) a substance obtainable from the Bacillus thuringiensis strain GC 91, or w) chlorfluazuron, or x) beta-cyfluthrin, or y) methiocarb. - The pesticidal combination of this invention will preferably contain the compound of formula (A) and one of the pesticides (B) in a weight ratio of 1 : 50 to 50 : 1, especially in a ratio from 1 : 20 to 20 : 1, more particularly from 10 : 1 to 1 : 10, still more particularly from 5 : 1 to 1 : 5, very particularly from 2 : 1 to 1 : 2, first and foremost in the ratio 1:1; alternatively in the ratio 5 : 1, or 5 : 2, or 5 : 3, or 5 : 4, or 4: 1, 4 : 3, or 3 : 1, or 3 : 2, or 2 : 1, or 1 : 5, or 2 : 5, or 3 : 5, or 4 : 5, or I : 4, or 3 : 4, or 1 : 3, or 2 : 3, or 1 :2.
- It has been found that a particularly effective composition is that which contains one part by weight of the compound of formula (A) and 10 parts by weight of the compound 4-bromo-2-chlorophenyl O-ethyl S-propyl phosphorothioate (profenofos). This composition is very particularly suitable for controlling representatives of the genera Earias and Heliothis.
- Surprisingly, it has now been found that the combination of the pesticide of formula (A) and one of the pesticides (B) not only brings about the expected additive enhancement of the activity spectrum on the pests to be controlled, but also has a synergistic effect that potentiates the activity ranges of both compounds from two points of view.
- On the one hand, the concentrations of the compound of formula (A) and of the individual compounds (B) are reduced with no reduction in the activity of said compounds. On the other hand, the combination also achieves a high degree of pest control where the individual compounds are completely inactive at too low concentrations. This feature permits on the one hand a broadening of the activity spectrum against the controllable pests and, on the the other, an enhancement of safety of application.
- The compositions of this invention have useful preventive and/or curative properties in the field of pest control even at low concentration. They are well tolerated by warm-blooded animals, fish and plants, and they have a very favourable biocidal spectrum. The compositions are effective against all, or individual, development stages of normally sensitive as well as resistant pests of animals such as insects and representatives of the order Acarina. The onset of the insecticidal and/or acaricidal action of the novel compositions may follow directly, i.e. a kill of the pests will occur immediately or only after some time, for example where moulting is effected, or indirectly, for example in diminished oviposition and/or hatching rate, the good activity corresponding to a mortality of at least 50 to 60 %.

in particular the family Aphididae, more particularly the genus Aphis, most particularly A. gossypii; in particular the family Aleurodidae, preferably Aleurothrixus floccus and Bemisia tabaci; in particular Familie Psyllidae, more preferably Psylla spp., - (4) of the order Thysanoptera, in particular the family Thripidae,
preferably Frankliniella spp., Thrips palmi and Thrips tabaci; - (5) of the order Acarina
in particular the family Eriophyidae, more particularly Aculus schlechtendali and Phyllocoptruta oleivora; - (6) of the order Diptera,
in particular the family Agromyzidae, more particularly Liriomyza trifolii. - With the novel pesticidal combinations it is possible to control, i.e. inhibit or destroy, in particular pests of the above mentioned type that occur in plants or, especially, in cultivated plants and ornamentals, in horticulture and in forestry, or in parts of such plants such as fruit, blossoms, leaves, stems, tubers or roots, while in some cases parts of plants that grow later can also be protected against these pests.
- The pesticidal combination of this invention can be used with advantage for pest control in cereals such as maize or sorghum; fruit such as pomes, stone fruit and soft fruit, typically apples, pears, plums, peaches, almonds, cherries, or berries, for example strawberries, raspberries and blackberries; leguminous plants, typically including beans, lentils, peas and soybeans; oil plants such as rape, mustard, poppy, olives, sunflowers, coconut, castor oil plants, cocoa beans and groundnuts; cucurbits such as marrows, cucumber and melons; fibre plants such as cotton, flax, hemp and jute; citrus fruit such as oranges, lemons, grapefruit and mandarins; vegetables such as spinach, lettuce, asparagus, cabbages, carrots, onions, tomatoes, potatoes and paprika; lauraceae such as avocados, cinnamon and camphor; and tobacco, nuts, coffee, egg plants, sugar cane, tea, pepper, vines, hops, bananas and natural rubber plants or ornamentals; in particular in maize, sorghum, pomes, stone fruit, leguminous plants, cucurbits, cotton, citrus fruit, vegetables, egg plants, vines, hops or ornamentals; preferably in maize, sorghum, apples, pears, plums, peaches, beans, peas, soybeans, olives, sunflowers, coconuts, cocoa beans, cabbages, tomatoes, potatoes, vines or cotton; and, most preferably, in vines, citrus fruit, apples, pears, tomatoes and cotton.
- Further utilities of the pesticidal combinations of this invention are the protection of stored goods and materials as well as in the hygiene sector, especially the protection of domestic animals and productive livestock against pests of the indicated type.
- Depending on the intended objectives and the prevailing circumstances, the pesticidal compositions are emulsifiable concentrates, suspension concentrates, directly sprayable or dilutable solutions, coatable pastes, dilute emulsions, wettable powders, soluble powders, dispersible powders, wettable powders, dusts, granulates or encapsulations in polymer substances, comprising the compound of formula (A) and one or more than one pesticide (B).
- The active ingredients are used in those compositions in pure form, the solid compounds being typically used in a specific particle size, or preferably together with at least one of the adjuvants customary in formulation technology, for example extenders such as solvents, or solid carriers, or surface-active compounds (surfactants).
- Suitable solvents are typically aromatic hydrocarbons or partially hydrogenated aromatic hydrocarbons, preferably the fractions of alkylbenzenes containing 8 to 12 carbon atoms, such as xylene mixtures, alkylated naphthalenes or tetrahydronaphthalene, aliphatic or cycloaliphatic hydrocarbons such as paraffins or cyclohexane; alcohols such as ethanol, propanol or butanol; glycols and their ethers and esters such as propylene glycol, dipropylene glycol ether, diethylene glycol or 2-methoxyethanol or 2-ethoxyethanol; ketones such as cyclohexanone, isophorone or diacetone alcohol; strongly polar solvents such as N-methylpyrrolid-2-one, dimethyl sulfoxide or N,N-dimethylformamide; water; vegetable oils or epoxidised vegetable oils such as rape oil, castor oil, coconut oil or soybean oil or epoxidised rape oil, castor oil, coconut oil or soybean oil, and silicone oils.
- The solid carriers typically used for dusts and dispersible powders are usually natural mineral fillers such as calcite, talcum, kaolin, montmorillonite or attapulgite. To improve the physical properties it is also possible to add highly dispersed silicic acids or highly dispersed absorbent polymers. Suitable granulated adsorptive carriers are porous types, including pumice, broken brick, sepiolite or bentonite; and suitable nonsorbent carriers are calcite or sand. In addition, innumerable granulated materials of inorganic or organic nature may be used, especially dolomite or pulverised plant residues.
- Depending on the type of compound to be formulated, suitable surface-active compounds are nonionic, cationic and/or anionic surfactants or mixtures of surfactants having good emulsifying, dispersing and wetting properties. The surfactants listed below shall be regarded merely as exemplary; many more surfactants customarily employed in formulation technology and suitable for use in the practice of the invention are described in the relevant literature.
- Nonionic surfactants are preferably polyglycol ether derivatives of aliphatic or cycloaliphatic alcohols, saturated or unsaturated fatty acids and, alkylphenols, said derivatives containing 3 to 30 glycol ether groups and 8 to 20 carbon atoms in the (aliphatic) hydrocarbon moiety and 6 to 18 carbon atoms in the alkyl moiety of the alkylphenols. Further suitable nonionic surfactants are water-soluble polyadducts of polyethylene oxide with polypropylene glycol, ethylenediaminopolypropylene glycol and alkylpolypropylene glycol containing 1 to 10 carbon atoms in the alkyl chain, which adducts contain 20 to 250 ethylene glycol ether groups and 10 to 100 propylene glycol ether groups. These compounds usually contain 1 to 5 ethylene glycol units per propylene glycol unit. Representative examples of nonionic surfactants are nonylphenol polyethoxyethanols, polyethoxylated castor oil, polyadducts of polypropylene and polyethylene oxide, tributylphenol polyethoxylate, polyethylene glycol and octylphenol polyethoxylate. Fatty acid esters of polyoxyethylene sorbitan, e.g. polyoxyethylene sorbitan trioleate, are also suitable nonionic surfactants.
- Cationic surfactants are preferably quaternary ammonium salts carrying, as N-substituent, at least one C8-C22alkyl radical and, as further substituents, unsubstituted or halogenated lower alkyl, benzyl or hydroxy-lower alkyl radicals. The salts are preferably in the form of halides, methyl sulfates or ethyl sulfates. Examples are stearyltrimethylammonium chloride and benzyl bis(2-chloroethyl)ethylammonium bromide.
- Suitable anionic surfactants may be water-soluble soaps as well as water-soluble synthetic surface-active compounds. Suitable soaps are the alkali metal salts, alkaline earth metal salts and unsubstituted or substituted ammonium salts of higher fatty acids (C10-C22), e.g. the sodium or potassium salts of oleic or stearic acid or of natural fatty acid mixtures which can be obtained e.g. from coconut oil or tall oil. Further suitable soaps are also the fatty acid methyltaurin salts.
- More frequently, however, synthetic surfactants are used, preferably fatty sulfonates, fatty sulfates, sulfonated benzimidazole derivatives or alkylarylsulfonates. The fatty sulfonates or sulfates are usually in the form of alkali metal salts, alkaline earth metal salts or unsubstituted or substituted ammonium salts and usually contain a C8-C22alkyl radical, which also includes the alkyl moiety of acyl radicals. Typical examples are the sodium or calcium salt of ligninsulfonic acid, of dodecyl sulfate or of a mixture of fatty alcohol sulfates obtained from natural fatty acids. These compounds also comprise the salts of sulfated and sulfonated fatty alcohol/ethylene oxide adducts. The sulfonated benzimidazole derivatives preferably contain two sulfonic acid groups and one fatty acid radical containing 8 to 22 carbon atoms. Typical examples of alkylarylsulfonates are the sodium, calcium or triethanolammonium salts of dodecylbenzenesulfonic acid, dibutylnaphthalenesulfonic acid or of a condensate of naphthalenesulfonic acid and formaldehyde. Corresponding phosphates, e.g. salts of the phosphoric acid ester of an adduct of p-nonylphenol with 4 to 14 mol of ethylene oxide, or phospholipids, are also suitable.
- The compositions will usually comprise 0.1 to 99 %, preferably 0.1 to 95 %, of a combination of the compound of formula (A) and one or more than one pesticide (B), and 1 to 99.9 %, preferably 5 to 99.9 %, of at least one solid or liquid adjuvant; usually they will contain 0 to 25 %, preferably 0.1 to 20 %, of surfactants (in each case percentages are by weight). Whereas commercial products will preferably be formulated as concentrates, the end user will normally employ dilute formulations having a substantially lower concentration of active ingredient Particularly preferred formulations will be made up as follows: (throughout, percentages are by weight):
Emulsifiable concentrates: combination of (A) and (B): 1 to 95 %, preferably 5 to 20 % surfactant: 1 to 30 %, preferably 10 to 20 % solvent: 5 to 98 %, preferably 70 to 85 % Dusts: combination of (A) and (B): 0.1 to 10 %, preferably 0.1 to 1 % solid carrier: 99.9 to 90 %, preferably 99.9 to 99 % Suspension concentrates: combination of (A) and (B): 5 to 75 %, preferably 10 to 50 % water: 94 to 24 %, preferably 88 to 30 % surfactant: 1 to 40 %, preferably 2 to 30 % Wettable powders: combination of (A) and (B): 0.5 to 90 %, preferably 1 to 80 % surfactant: 0.5 to 20 %, preferably 1 to 15 % solid carrier: 5 to 99 %, preferably 15 to 98 % Granules: combination of (A) and (B): 0.5 to 30 %, preferably 3 to 15 % solid carrier. 99.5 to 70 %, preferably 97 to 85 % - The novel compositions may also contain further solid or liquid adjuvants such as stabilisers, e.g. vegetable oils or epoxidised vegetable oils (e.g. epoxidised coconut oil, rapeseed oil or soybean oil), antifoams, e.g. silicone oil, preservatives, viscosity regulators, binders and/or tackifiers, as well as fertilisers or other chemical agents for obtaining special effects, typically including bactericides, fungicides, nematicides, molluscicides or herbicides.
- The compositions of this invention are prepared in known manner, in the absence of adjuvants, typically by grinding, sieving and/or compressing a solid active ingredient or mixture of active ingredients, for example to a specific particle size; and in the presence of at least one adjuvant, for example by intimately mixing and/or grinding the active ingredient or mixture of active ingredients with the adjuvant or adjuvants. The invention also relates to the preparation of the compositions.
- The methods of applying the compositions, i.e. the methods of controlling pests of the indicated type, typically spraying, atomising, dusting, coating, dressing, scattering or pouring, selected in accordance with the intended objectives and prevailing circumstances, and the use of the compositions for controlling pests of the indicated type, are further objects of the invention. Typical rates of concentration are in the range from 0.1 to 1000 ppm, preferably from 0.1 to 500 ppm, of active ingredient. The rate of application may vary over a wide range and will depend on the nature of soil, the type of application (foliar application, seed dressing, application to the seed furrow), the cultivated plant, the pest to be controlled, the prevailing climatic conditions and other factors governed by the type of application, time of application and target crop. The rates of application per hectare will usually be from 1 to 2000 g/ha, more particularly from 10 to 1000 g/ha, preferably from 20 to 600 g/ha.
- A preferred method of application in the field of plant protection is application to the foliage of the plants (foliar application), the number of applications and the rate of application depending on the risk of infestation by the particular pest. However, the active ingredients can also penetrate the plants through the roots (systemic action) by drenching the locus of the plants with a liquid formulation or by applying the active ingredient in solid form to the locus of the plants, for example to the soil, e.g. in granular form (soil application). In paddy rice crops, such granules may be applied to the flooded rice field.
- The compositions of the invention are also suitable for protecting plant propagation material, e.g. seeds such as fruit, tubers or grains, or plant cuttings, against animal pests. The propagation material can be treated with the formulation before planting. Seeds, for example, can be dressed before sowing. The compounds of the invention can also be applied to grains (coating), either by impregnating the grains with a liquid formulation or by coating them with a solid formulation. The composition can also be applied to the locus of planting when planting the propagation material, for example to the seed furrow during sowing. The invention relates also to these methods of treating plant propagation material and to the plant propagation material so treated.
- The invention is illustrated by the following non-limitative Examples.
